Excised section
I had to excise the following section.
In 1866, under the Presidency of William A. F. Browne, sometime Superintendent of the Crichton Royal at Dumfries, it became the Medico-Psychological Association. Browne had been a prominent phrenologist and was anxious to advance the scientific claims of medical psychology. He also amassed one of the earliest collections of art by psychiatric patients. In 1920, Browne's son, James Crichton-Browne, editor of the extremely influential West Riding Lunatic Asylum Medical Reports (1871-1876, six volumes) delivered the first Maudsley Lecture.
It was necessary to excise this section, which is about Browne rather the MPA as such, due to the fact that the name change occurred in 1865 when Woods was president. There was therefore no logical way to link Browne to 1865. No real justification anyway to discussion of Browne in a manner that is not directly linked to history of MPA.

- Yes, obviously it is about Browne rather than the MPA, but I'm not totally sure that you had to excise it. I found the summary of Browne's work and interests, even mention of his son James, quite enlightening and not overtly irrelevant. Oh well. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:37, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
- I agree and that's why I pasted in here. I have a couple of thoughts about where it could go ... Possibly it might be feasible to include a section on notable Presidents of the MPA and stick it in there? A section like that could get out of control quickly enough though ...

- Well, British Psychological Society has a list of all Presidents, but it is just a list. Are RCP Presidents really that unruly by comparison ?! Martinevans123 (talk) 23:14, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
- LOL - not as such no, unfortunately. But it will cover most significant figures in British and Irish psychiatry from the 1860s up to the present: John Conolly, Conolly Norman, Daniel Hack Tuke,, Chrichton Browne, Henry Maudsley, George Savage, Thomas Clouston, Richard Leeper, Thomas Drapes, John Dunne, David Yellowlees ... list
